“Operation Crayon”

My name is Abby Tumbleson and I am a student at Tolt Middle School. I am a junior member of the Star Guild which participates in fundraising in support of Seattle Children’s Hospital.

I am collecting new packs of Crayola brand crayons for the Child Life Department. In 2005, Children’s held their first “Operation Crayon” and collected over 500,000 packs of crayons. Each patient receives their own pack of crayons during their hospital stay. The supply is finally running out. I hope to collect at least 200 new packs for the hospital. If you would like to help, please drop off new packs of Crayola brand crayons at the drop boxes located around town from March 4th to March 18th.

I have drop Box locations at Duvall Ixtapa, EF Print & Copy Center and Northwest Art Center.
